So much talent in our team but so little system. Doubts as to if Goodwin can coach must be growing.

There is hardly a player in this side that is playing his best football. That’s the coaches job and it’s not happening.

Cats are so clean. 
 

If only we could find space and hit targets we’d be a half decent team.

Reckon Salem could show some urgency? Sprint the 50 and kick the [censored] ball early!!

not wait for 30 seconds and kick to a 3-1

We played poorly.  Geelong just sweated on our mistakes, which we continuously made for them.  Even still, we had a kick to win it!  Some things to like, but our system especially forward was terrible.

Poorly selected. 
Poorly coached. 
No skill. 
Dumb. Don’t touch balls on goal line. Don’t put ball over the boundary. 
No game plan.

It’s frustrating out only goals come from player brilliance and not structure.  The boys looked confused inside 50, they don’t know where to run, where to stand, where to block etc.

this has been happening for two years now!.  

Salam is absolutely wasted down back, he should be a high forward or is leading up and delivering to the forwards.

We are mentally weak, dumb and still have no idea what to do when we go forward.

He has to go Goodwin, how can you justify that performance.

Let them chip their way through our [censored] weak grid for 4qtrs. Any other coach would have pressed them up to prevent this but not our mastermind.

Goodwin has to implement a way to goal sooner rather than later.

We lose the same way every time, which is an indictment on the coach.

Nicely entrenched in the bottom 4 where we clearly belong. 
 

Our coach is truly a disgrace. I was waiting to see the team selections in action and boy was I right in my suspicious. Jetta for Lockhart, a miss. Played Hannan and AVB and Fritsch and Melksham which just makes no sense. 

No second tall forward even tho both Weid and Jackson are fit. 
Back line is also a [censored] show. People can have a go at Omac all they like, but he can actually defend. Joel Smith gives us nothing. How many times were we mismatched down back because we didn’t go in tall enough? 
 

I am so disappointed with our game plan and selections. A fully fit list and this is the [censored] we put on the field.

The whole footy world thinks we are a poor club.

I think we are over-rated.

 

The team we put on the park today was as good as we can expect all year. 

Yuk.

It would have been a travesty if we'd won that.  

Geelong just toyed with us and nearly stuffed it up, they couldn't have played worse and we still didn't look like it.

We have so little polish, it's never going to happen with this team.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
